Typical Day-In-The-Life At This School
The school opens at 6:00. Preschool begins at 8:30. Each age is separated and will begin their day in one of several classrooms. Each classroom carries a different theme, math, language art (reading readiness), science, art, music, library, and the gym.
The children will rotate classrooms every thirty minutes. That allows the children to see new and different stimuli rather than sitting in one room all day. As they progress through each classroom they will work on that classroom's theme. Several times during the day they will have gym time where they will ride toys and bounce balls. They will also go outside to the playground for extended exercise on the various toys. Lunch is at 11:00 and then a nap until 1:45. Next they will have their snack and play outside for 30 minutes. The afternoon is much like the morning with the children moving through the different rooms, Computers, library, art, and science. Several times each month they will meet in the gym for a play presented by different artists, a musician who will preform, or Animals on Wheels who will show off her latest strange animal.
Their day will end when mom or dad drops in to pick up.
